‘Solid’ Season Debuts For CBS’ BIG BROTHER & JERICHO!!
I am – Hercules!!
According to Variety’s ratings analyst Rick Kissel, “Big Brother 9” debuted stronger than than the popular Evel Dick edition of “Big Brother 8” (despite tougher non-summer competition like “American Idol”).
The “Jericho” season debut managed to best the ratings of all but one episode of “Cane,” which held the Tuesday 10 p.m. timeslot earlier in the season.
From Kissel’s report:
Combined, "Big Brother" and "Jericho" improved the network's prior four-week 18-49 average in the 9-11 p.m. timeslot (with a combination of original and repeat programming) by 37% (2.6 vs. 1.9).
